I started losing weight in 2008 and over the next two years lost 106 pounds. In 2010 my life changed when I got diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. Over the next two years I gained back 100 pounds. I'm taking my life back. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today is my fresh start and it can be yours too.

Meeting with my coach
Some of you have been asking how my meeting went with my coach yesterday. It was hard. I really like him and will have HUGE success, but I left there feeling sad, frustrated, overwhelmed, but mostly hopeful. I was sad because of some things that were brought up that I hadn't thought about in awhile. I was frustrated by what I have become, how I have stayed like this for so long, and how I have had excuses for years and not even realized it until I was challenged. I was overwhelmed because a lot was thrown my way and I was trying to remember it all and still am, but most importantly like I said I felt hope. Hope for my future like I never had before. Hope that I will be able to drop the weight and reach all my physical goals. Hope that I can stick to something I start and see amazing results. Hope that I can learn what I need to learn to teach my children. Matt was tough, but I need it and I look forward to our meeting on Thursday. Matt, if you are reading this, thanks for a great start.

Melissa, When i started with my trainer, I thought i was going to die. So now I am just love it! I see Holly twice a week and it is great. I have been doing this for a month and I can already see inches i have lost. I guess it is to all 150 crunches i do a session with her.
Keep up the great work and you will see GREAT results!! We will be so ready for the next tri! She has me set for 5-7 months on losing all my weight and getting toned!
Keep up the good work Melissa! Hey it could be worse and you could have your little bro Jordan as your trainer like I do! He's kicking my butt! :)
good for you!!! I wish you the best of luck with your adventure to a new you. You can do this. You're an inspiration...I so need to get off my rump and get moving. Your words are exactly what I needed this AM.
Take each day as you can. Remember this is not only for you but for your family. I think it is wonderful that you have a coach, especially for those hard days.
You will succeed!
